I have read through some of your website and wanted
to leave you some questions to ponder. How can one be a transgender and
a Chrisitan at the same time? By changing your gender you are saying
that God was wrong by making you your original gender (I didn't know
God was ever wrong). I also believe in the Bible that it states that
God disapproves of this type of behavior ( like at Soddoham and
Gomorrah). I am interested in why you think that God thinks it is okay
to be transgender when clearly he speaks against it. The work done by
Help4Families, Exodus and Jerry Leech are done in the name of God
because they are based upon Biblical principals( but as a Christian I
am sure you know this deep down)

Hi Ms Skimmer

I'm sorry you have chosen to be snarky and willfully, woefully
ignorant. If you had read through more of my website, you would know
many of the answers to your questions. Simply put, there is no reason a
person cannot be both transgender and Christian. Here's a quick run down of what you bring up:

I have never felt differently, on the surface or deep down. See my story, Coming Up Queer.

You think you can guilt trip me, and presumably every transgender
Christian yet you have no idea what we believe or why we believe it.
I'm going to estimate that you came from Help4Families and you have a
spouse, parent, or child who's trans. (Since Denise
is the only topic you sound familiar with.) If so, that's even sadder
that you are ignorant of your loved one and deliberately so.
Unfortunately, Denise breeds ignorance and deception.
